Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I'm in need of 13 portraits for the specific characters listed bellow. They will be integrated into a flash movie. The website they will be posted on is listed below. I'm looking for an artist who has experience drawing faces/portraits. The portraits should be clean, crisp drawings and human.. The portraits will be uploaded into a flash movie that is under construction, but mostly finished. See the web link below.

Trigger Ethics Website: Trigger Ethics Temporary Site

The best file format you could give me would be a set of .psd's. I could also work with .jpg, .gif, and .fla files that are compatible with Flash Mx or earlier if it becomes necessary.

Backgrounds on the portraits can be either blank or relative to the dystopian society in which they live.

As far as payment, I'm a poor college student. I don't have any money at all to give to an artist. If there needs to be some sort of payment, contact me anything and I may have ways to pay you. So if money is a concern of yours, I can work with you, I just can't guarantee anything.

If you're the kind of person who will work for recognition alone, then this might be the project for you. Since this is a project I did in college, the college basicly wants to make the work as visible as possible. Its entirely possible that they will ensure thousands of people view the website. You will be credited for your work. In addition to my college doing tons of pr work, this radio drama will be played on Radiogrounds and whatever other internet stations I can get to play it. The website is advertised at the end of each episode, so one way or another people are going to find the site. There will also be a podcast to attract people to the site, and finally I'll be pming tons of people on newgrounds and creating a facebook site. So, you will get recognition and this is a great project to be a part of. Please do it!

The series, a 7 part mini series, is in the final stages of production. We will be broadcasting in January. So the pictures need to be done by December so that we have plenty of time for PR.

Here's more information on the world. The last section are the people that actually need to be drawn.

Sociatal information/Clothing Style/Setting information:
This world is dystopian world in the "not too distant" future. The environment has gone to hell to the point that one needs a gas mask to walk outside. Cities themselves are run by Capatilistic Coorporations responsible for all of the needs of the city. The city we deal with is Pinnacle City, run by Pinnacle Arms (specializes in weapons manufacturing).

Characters in this Radio Drama are either part of the company or part of the underground church. Those involved with the company would always wear business attire. Those in the "trods", the poor outcasts of society, are much more likely to wear whatever they can get their hands on, steal, or make themselves. Common trod clothing includes the standard cowboy hat, gasmasks, loose fitting, functional, worn clothing, and tan trenchcoats.

Gadgetry is advanced, but not beyond recognition. Most people who carry guns still carry revolvers or rifles of some sort. PDAs function as the main computational device. Computers are generally built into desks or walls.

DESCRIPTIONS:
These are the characters that need to be drawn:

Leon Westcott- Male, 29 yrs, 6'1'', Clean shaven Dirty blond to light brown, Parted hair (to the left), less than beatles length. business (hero)

Leon is a dedicated executive who slowly but surely worked his way up the company ladder. His work is careful and precise; he doesn't like leaving things up to chance. He is also an ethical man, but not beyond reason. However, his fellow executives view this as a weakness, especially Dekker (for whom Leon holds particular distain).

Leon can be frequently found shooting with Jack Dreely, another executive.

Brass- Male, 42 yrs, 5'7'', Beard, Dark Hair, Cunning, angular, but wider... dirty "spiky" hair, greasy (gun runner, carries grenades at all times kind of guy)

Brass is a sardonic gun-trader from who knows where. While a mercenary by all appearances, Brass is amused by Leon and becomes something of a friend to him. Brass's street smarts and raw ability with firearms help balance out the characteristics of the ex-executive. Brass believes that Joseph is an annoying hypocrite and often bickers with him.

Joseph Alder - Male, 43 yrs, 5'9'', Clean shaven, blond, Dirty blond. closer to brown. flecks of gray, Not quite jesus look (aspiring to be a preacher, member of an underground robinhood like church)

Joseph is the right-hand man of Father Rosewood, leader of the Underground Church. Joseph is dedicated to overthrowing Pinnacle Arms and hates everything that has to do with the company. He tries to display the virtues of his movement but is easily agitated into a foul or angry mood by Brass.

Joseph Alder's chief job as 2nd in command is to run raides on Pinnacle warehouse to collect filters for the poor.

Mitch Irksome - Male, 23 yrs, 5'9'', Fashionable square glasses, Pastel Green Suit, close cut hair, fashionable dorky (Business intern)

Mitch Irksome is an intern at Pinnacle Arms. He's a suck up, spending most of his time begging for a conversation with an executive. He's the coffee boy of Pinnacle Arms.

In his off time, Mitch frequents the fashion net, the online fashion news channel.

Verena Dekker - Female, 45 yrs, 5,4'', Bitch, Pulled back tight, Black (French), Powerful Woman Suit (Business Executive)

Dekker is an arrogant, calculating, self-satisfying prick. She considers herself superior to all the other executives, especially Leon. She is also incredibly ambitious. Dekker is the first to correct a peer and the last to admit wrong doing.

If any of the executives was up to no good, Dekker might be the person you'd most suspect.

Jack Dreely - Male, 35 yrs, 5'8'', Red-Brown hair, Greasy salesman, Hair slicked back, Mid short, "Greasy mafioso", thin (Business Executive)

Dreely is a jerk and only out for number one. Though exceedingly intelligent, he better known for being very clever. He made the position of executive by manipulating and tricking other people. Dreely is incredibly cynical and sees little point in doing anything that does not benefit him.

Rosewood- Male, 58 yrs, 6'5'', Long hair, respectably balding (high forhead), gray preacher beard, cowboy hat (Underground Church leader, respectec, in charge)

Father Rosewood is the leader of the Underground Church. While he is a devout Christian priest, he does not discrimante against any other religion and sees himself as a champion of all the downtrodden. He views the current system run by Pinnacle as corrupt and oppressive and wishes for change more than anything else. Though fast with a gun, Rosewood does not revel in killing and believes in temperance. This being said, when placed in a combat situation against those he believes are evil, Rosewood rises to challenge and deals out "swift justice."Father Rosewood is the leader of the Underground Church.

Gudden- Male, 54 yrs, 5'9'', Large, CEO, Bald shiny head, hair on sides above ears, graying brown. (Blowhard ceo of pinnacle arms inc.)

A loud and perpetually angry CEO, he is the direct boss of all the executives. His only concern is the welfare of the company and its stock holders.

Roman Hale - Female, 32 yrs, 6'3, Sharp angular features, long blond hair, cold blue eyes, looks like she would end you (Assassin, sociopath, blends in and looks sophisticated)

Roman Hale is a mysterious and couth assassin hired by Dekker and Dreely. Hale is sophisticated and collected in most manners and appearances, but she is actually a deranged sociopath who enjoys torturing her targets before their demise and giving soliloquies.

In a small box, deep within her briefcase lies a collection of eye-teeth, human eye-teeth.

Carmichael- Male, 53 yrs, 6', Definate pudge, but regular, friendly, that guy you can like, but would sell you anything... Dyes his hair, tries to look angelic, fails (Pinnacle Church preacher, capatilistic church)

Reverend "Archpriest" Carmichael is the head of Pinnacle's Sponsored Church. He is a strange cross between a T.V. evangelist and a used car salesman. He is a showman at heart and knows how to play a crowd.

Pratchet- Male, 38 yrs, 5'7'', Growing his hair longer, Clean cut, tries to look righteous, strongly built (not ripped), angled jaw, squarer

Manders- Male, 51, 5'8'', Dry as Bread, brown hair, brown eyes, blends into a crowd, business beige boring suit (Boring business executive)

Manders is the executive in charge of food production for Pinnacle City. He likes bread and frequently makes stupid comments. Some men are born into mediocrity, Manders chose it.

There was a moment when, as a child, Manders stood on the playground. He looked at his fellow children frolicking and hung his head and turned around. Several years later, standing outside his high school prom, he hung his head. Then, one day, he was walking down a street and saw a bread bakery. He smiled.

Forscythe- Male, 48, 5,9'', Coniving, Executive for a rival company.

Forscythe is an executive for Bayer-Hopkins Incorporated, another city state neighboring Pinnacle Arms. He's just another executive, doesn't really matter what he looks like so have fun with him.
